On Friday, Joe Biden committed to a second debate with President Trump.
Speaking to reporters before boarding Air Force One after his tiny campaign “rally” in Madison, Wisconsin, Biden was asked about debating Trump again.
“I hope he’ll debate me. I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t,” Biden said.
When a reporter asked for clarification, confirming that Biden was giving a firm yes, Biden responded, “I’m committing now! Absolutely. Whether he’s in or not.”
Another reporter asked, “Are you going to drop out of the race, or are you completely ruling that out?”
“I’m completely ruling that out,” Biden answered.
Watch:
JUST IN: Biden appears to think he won the first debate, says he wouldn't be surprised if Trump didn't want to debate him again.

Biden also said he has completely ruled out dropping out of the race.

In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump wrote, “I have the answer to the Crooked Joe Biden Incompetence Puzzle — Let’s do another Debate, but this time, no holds barred – An all on discussion, with just the two of us on stage, talking about the future of our Country.”
I have the answer to the Crooked Joe Biden Incompetence Puzzle — Let’s do another Debate, but this time, no holds barred – An all on discussion, with just the two of us on stage, talking about the future of our Country. The ratings were massive for the First Debate, record setting, in fact, but this one, because of the format, would blow everything away! Let Joe explain why he wants Open Borders, with millions of people, and many violent criminals from parts unknown, pouring into our once great Nation, or why he wants Men Playing in Women’s Sports, or demand ALL ELECTRIC VEHICLES within five years, or why he allowed INFLATION TO RUN RAMPANT, destroying the people of our Country, and so much more. It would also, under great pressure, prove his “competence,” or lack thereof. Likewise it would be yet another test for me. What a great evening it would be, just the two of us, one on one, in a good, old fashioned Debate, the way they used to be. ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE!!!

At his rally in Madison, Biden made yet another embarrassing gaffe, stating, “Guess what, they’re trying to push me out of the race. No! I’ll beat Donald Trump. I’ll beat Donald Trump. I will beat him again in 2020!”
“And by the way, we’re gonna do it again in 2024!” he said, apparently realizing that he misspoke.
